Let’s explore the stories of these three famous minds. Charles Darwin (1809-1882) Biologist Introduction: During his journey around the world, he studied different animals and plants in nature. He discovered that they were not always the same — they changed slowly over a long time to adapt（适应） to the natural environment. He called this idea the “theory of evolution (进化论)”. This discovery helped mankind understand how life on Earth grows and develops. Hou Debang (1890-1974) Chemist Introduction: After studying chemistry abroad（在国外）, he returned to China and tried his best to develop the country's chemical industry. To help the nation produce its own soda ash (碳酸钠), he carried out many experiments and stuck to his scientific research for many years. His hard work finally led to a new production method, which ended foreign countries’ control over the market. Deng Jiaxian (1924-1986) Physicist Introduction: As a pioneer of China's nuclear (原子核的) science, he led his team to develop the nation’s first atomic and hydrogen bombs (原子弹和氢弹) starting from zero. He braved difficult conditions in the western desert in China for 28 years. Finally, he made historic achievements, adding China to the world’s list of nuclear powers. ( )26. Which of the following is Darwin’s achievement? A. He developed the chemical industry. B. He was a pioneer of the nuclear science in his country. C. He introduced the theory of evolution. ( )27. Why did Hou Debang return to China? A. To study chemistry further. B. To protect the country in difficult times. C. To help with the country’s development. ( )28. What’s the meaning of Deng Jiaxian’s achievement? A. It has protected our country. B. It has made us understand physics better. C. It has spread scientific knowledge everywhere. ( )29. What do the three scientists have in common? A. They all changed people’s daily lives. B. They all became famous for one discovery. C. They all made important scientific achievements. ( )30. Which word can we use to describe the three scientists? A. Curious. B. Inspiring. C. Brave. B Babusha means “eight steps to sand” in Chinese. Located in Gulang County, Gansu Province, it once suffered from terrible sandstorms. These storms buried farmland and often left nothing to harvest. Today, after three generations’ efforts, the vegetation coverage rate(植被覆盖率) has increased to 70 percent, up from less than 3 percent in the 1980s. The war began in 1981 with “six old men”, including Guo Chaoming. When poor health forced him to stop planting trees, he hoped his son Guo Wangang would follow in his footsteps. But Guo initially didn’t want to give up his job. However, a terrible sandstorm in 1993 changed his mind forever. A fast-moving brown wall of sand turned day into night, and 18 students were found dead in a river as they tried to get home from school during the sandstorm. “If we couldn’t protect our farmland or our children, how were we supposed to keep going?” Guo recalled. That was the moment he decided to join the fight. Year after year, Guo and his workmates have continued to plant trees each spring and fall. Thanks to their efforts, a green belt of 8km by 10km has been built, stopping the desert from moving further south. Now, the third generation has joined the fight. Guo Xi, the grandson of Guo Chaoming, is making Babusha known to younger generations through social media. “Babusha was a desert. Now it’s green. I hope more people know about it,” he said. ( )31. What main difficulties did the local people face in the past? ① Sandy weather. ②Loss of farmland. ③Poor transportation. A. ①② B. ②③ C. ①③ ( )32. What does the underlined word “initially” in paragraph 3 mean? A. at last. B. at first. C. at least. ( )33. What made Guo Wangang decide to fight the desert? A. A school accident. B. A heavy sandstorm. C. His father’s poor health. ( )34. Why does the writer mention Guo Xi? A. To encourage others to fight the desert. B. To explain the influence of modern technology. C. To stress the long-term effort of the desert fighters. ( )35. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To tell a story of fighting against desertification(沙漠化). B. To explain how sandstorms are formed. C. To attract more people to Babusha. C Celebrating the Qinghai-Xizang Railway Happy 20th anniversary to the Qinghai-Xizang Railway! Located on the “roof of the world”, this 1,956-kilometer railway has greatly changed transportation in China. Travel used to be difficult. In the 1950s, camels took three to four months to carry goods from Qinghai to Lhasa. Now, trains can do it in just 48 hours. The railway has also helped business. Near Xining Railway Station, a market for caterpillar fungus(冬虫夏草) has developed. In the past, business people had to drive for days to Xizang to collect herbs. Now, packages can reach many parts of China the next day. Lhasa West Station has changed too. It used to be open land with dirt roads. Now, it is a modern transport center with 11 lines carrying cars, home appliances, vegetables, and fruits. Local products, like apples, are even sold to Nepal by rail. To protect the environment, many parts of the railway are built on bridges so wild animals can pass safely. As a result, the number of Tibetan antelopes(藏羚羊) in Xizang has grown from about 70,000 in the 1990s to over 300,000 today. “You can often see them running alongside the railway,” said Hao Baojun, who has worked on the line for 40 years. But changes do not stop there. Earlier this year, China started a new power project. Once finished, more trains will run on electricity instead of diesel(柴油), making the railway greener. ( )36. How does the writer show changes in transportation in Paragraph 2? A. By telling stories. B. By giving reasons. C. By making a comparison. ( )37.What do the examples in Paragraph 3 show? A. The railway makes traveling easier for tourists. B. The railway has brought great development to local business. C. More large markets have been built around stations. ( )38. Why does the writer quote Hao Baojun’s words? A. To show wildlife protection along the railway is successful. B. To introduce a special animal in Xizang. C. To call on people to protect Tibetan antelopes. ( )39. What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. New kinds of trains will be invented for the line. B. The power project will be finished next year. C. The railway will be more environmentally friendly. ( )40. Where does the passage probably come from? A . A story book. B . A science magazine. C . A news report. 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的 A ~ F 选项中，选出5个适当的选项补全短文，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 The key to learning faster is not just studying harder but studying smarter. 41. ______ By using these methods in daily routines, you can build habits that will help you for a lifetime. Set clear, achievable goals Unclear study goals make it difficult to make progress. Instead of deciding to “study biology”, a more effective goal would be “complete three pages of biology notes and review them carefully.” 42. Use mixed practice Many students focus on one subject at a time. 43. ______ For example, moving between algebra (代数) and geometry (几何) rather than focusing only on one topic. This makes your brain work better and helps you remember things longer. Value quality sleep Teens often give up sleep to study more, but this does more harm than good. 44. ______ Deep sleep allows the brain to process and store new information, making it easier to recall later. Experts suggest 8 to 10 hours of sleep per night for teenagers. Take part in regular physical activities Exercise increases blood flow and oxygen (氧气) levels. 45. ______ Activities like running or even short walks improve memory. Regular movement also reduces stress, helping teens feel more energetic and ready to learn. Learning faster isn’t about working harder—it’s about using the right methods. These tips help teens improve memory and make studying more effective. A. Sleep is important for memory. B. This helps the brain work better. C. Studying one subject at a time allows deeper focus. D. This guide gives some tips to help teens learn faster. E. Clear, small goals create a sense of achievement that keeps you going. F. However, research shows changing between connected subjects improves learning. 第三节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文完成思维导图并回答问题，并将答案写在答题卡相应的横线上。（注意：46-49小题每空限填一词，50小题15词左右） Many students study by reading their textbooks and notes again and again, but research shows that simple rereading is not the best way to learn. A more effective (有效的) way is called “retrieval practice” – testing yourself by trying to recall (回想) information from memory. To do retrieval practice, close your book after reading a passage and try to remember the key points. Write down what you recall, then check your notes to see if you are right. If you make mistakes, read the material again and try once more. It takes more effort than rereading, but the effort helps you learn better over time. Flash cards (闪卡) are a popular tool for retrieval practice. Here are useful tips: Write a keyword or question on one side and the answer on the other. Look at the question and try to recall the answer before flipping (翻转) the card. Do not flip too quickly. If you get the answer wrong, read the correct one and repeat until you succeed. You can also use voice notes or flash card apps. You can practice anywhere: explain an idea from class to yourself or a friend, then check your textbook. Testing yourself takes more work, but it makes knowledge stick and helps you improve step by step. Retrieval practice Meaning A learning method of 46. yourself by recalling information from memory.
